Transition

This egret is in the middle of transitioning back to normal coloration. It has a nest and eggs now so no more need to look pretty. The bill is almost back to the normal light yellow. The eyes are back to yellow. The legs are still a bit pinkish instead of yellow. That is a really big blue egg in the nest below the bird.
